Best Market Towns to visit in the UK

Visiting market towns when on holiday is a great way to combine history, architecture and shopping.

With many having a past steeped in stories of bygone times and buildings which tell the tale of the destination, they are a fantastic snapshot of life over the generations. Market towns which are true to their roots will still offer local produce and goods from stalls on particular days and many will have independent shops selling goods which are a little more unusual or local to the area.
